GFC 2023 is committed to inclusivity and creating a welcoming environment for all attendees. As such, we believe that financial barriers should not be a hindrance to access the conference.
To stand behind our commitment, we have priced our in-person registration fees to cover only the baseline expenses associated with hosting GFC 2023. Additionally, we are also providing a virtual option, so regardless of your ability to travel or financial need, we will have an engaging and meaningful conference experience designed for you.
Can’t pay full price for the Good Food Conference 2023? We don’t want cost to be a barrier to your attendance. Use this form to apply for a need-based fee-waived registration, which if granted, will provide complimentary access to the event. We also offer reduced-fee tickets for regular attendees who register before June 30. Please note that fee-waived registrations, for both in-person and online attendance, are limited. Fee-waived applications are due June 9, and applicants will be notified of a decision by June 16.
